Emobility Workshop

Thursday | 16 February, 9:00am–5:00pm

The CONVERGE Emobility Workshop will focus on thermal management in battery packs and electric motors. Over the last few years, battery fires have become an increasing concern in an otherwise booming electric vehicle industry. The latest amendment to the AIS 156 norms sets stringent safety standards for battery packs and aims to bring battery safety to the forefront of research and development. In this workshop, learn how CONVERGE can help you meet rigorous battery safety standards by accurately predicting thermal runaway propagation and developing mitigation strategies using simulation. The workshop will feature industry case studies and hands-on CONVERGE training.

Alternative Fuels Workshop

Thursday | 16 February, 9:00am–5:00pm

This workshop will cover a variety of alternative fuels integral to decarbonization: hydrogen, ammonia, natural gas, and biofuels. Engineers around the globe are researching the potential of these fuels to replace conventional gasoline and diesel and help us achieve net-zero emissions in the near future. Simulation is a key enabler of this research, allowing engineers to investigate the challenges of alternative fuels and design propulsion systems that overcome those challenges. In this workshop, industry experts will share how they use CONVERGE in their alternative fuels research. Furthermore, Convergent Science engineers will lead hands-on training on how to take advantage of CONVERGE’s detailed chemistry solver to simulate any type of alternative fuel.
